Welcome to Litsy!

This was so fun! And I learned a bit about the festival of Holi - great authors note too. #bbrc #atoz:f

The illustrations in this book are absolutely beautiful. This is a book about Holi the Indian festival of colors. I had never heard about this holiday but it sure looks like a lot of fun. Chintoo and Mintoo gather different colored flower petals and let them dry. Then they make the flowers into petals. At the festival they throw the powder into the air and yell “Holi, hai!” The festival is about fresh starts, friendship and forgiveness!

I read this book to my class of Pre-K students for the start of Spring and we loved it! The illustrations are beautiful and vibrant. This book was a great way to learn about Holi.
